Has anyone ever been to a sports physcologist?

[emilya]

I am struggling a little with confidence with my eventing and somebody suggested I see a sports physcologist. Just wondered if anyone had and how they had got on?

 

[Bedlam]

No - but let me know if you do!!

Didn't Pippa Funnell see one - I seem to remember her talking about how she saw one abt her confidence issues and it worked really well... Might have read it in her autobiography.

I started a degree in January this year doing Sports Psychology. Let me know how it goes if you find one please.

Yes, I have for my sj nervousness. It has helped definately, & for the first time a couple of weeks ago I was able to focus on keeping riding & jumping the fence rather than losing concentration along with her before the fence when she went to shy at something, PM me if you want to know any more. Hope that helps a bit.

Yes! I am currently working with one for my SJ. We have only just started but so far i am very impressed.... Its definitly worth looking into.

Good luck

Attended a seminar rather than individual session with Michael Caulfield and he was excellent, highly recommend.

No but went to a seminar given by Nikki Heath - the Sports Psych who worked with Pippa and also have the Jane Savoie books which both gave me some very good tips!
